Can some one give us some ground clearance numbers please! We just put the bike togather to a rolling chasie and we are trying to locate whare to put the upper shock mounts but we dont really know whare to start from. So we are running 18" rimsand I figured we could use a number from the ground to the frame any help would be great. Thanks

Hi Richie,
Did you figure this out yet? I would stay roughly with stock shick position and change the geometry with the front end. If you do lower the shock mounts, I would go too much from stock. Plus when you change the angle your changing the dampning and rebound.
